Makoto's POV
I was siting at my desk attempting to focus on studying for a test next week, bored out of my mind. 'I wonder what Haru is doing now?' I ask myself but realize he's probably in the bath. Typical Haru.
I smile to myself at the thought. I look out the window to see a girl lugging boxes out of a truck a few doors down. Somehow I thinking of Haru makes me miss him so I get up from studying and decide to go visit him. On my way over, I see the girl struggling to lift a box. "Here, let me help you miss." I say and take the box, our hands accidentally brush. We both blush and she turns and says, "T-thank you mister." Wow... she's really cute.
I blush harder and say "N-no problem, miss. By the way, I'm Tachibana Makoto. I live just down the street." She smiles and replies. "I'm (l-l/n) (f/n). It's nice to meet you Tachibana-san."
"You can just call me Makoto, I don't mind." I say with a smile. She blushes and says "Okay, M-makoto." Hearing my name roll off her tongue makes me blush and turn away. She shows me into her house and I help her set up and put together the furniture. We finally finish about 2 hours later and so I reluctantly leave because of school tomorrow and the studying I have to finish. "See you later, (y/n)!" I call behind me waving. Crap, I just called her by her first name. "Bye, Makoto! See you tomorrow!" She calls back, not seeming to mind the first name basis.
The next morning...
I get up an extra half hour early just to see (y/n) before I go get Haru. I roll out of bed and slip on my uniform. I grab my bag and dash out the door. I get to (y/n)'s house to see her locking the door behind her and see our schools uniform on her. I blush at how adorable she looks in the uniform. "Oh, good morning, Makoto! She calls with a smile. She walks up besides me. "H-hey (y/n)." She smiles and asks nervously, "Umm... since I'm new could you... umm... w-walk me to school?"
I blush madly at her embarrassed face. "S-sure! Just I have to pick up Haru first."
"Can I come t-too?" She asks. "Yeah, I don't think he'll mind." Her eyes brighten and a smile spreads across her lips.
We arrive at Haru's house. I don't even bother knocking, I just walk around back and walk in. I walk into the bathroom to find Haru casually soaking. "Good morning, Haru." I say extending a hand. He reluctantly takes it and stands up. "Mackrel..." He murmurs and goes into the kitchen. "Oh!" I say and run to the front door. (y/n) stands there uncomfortably and so I invite her in. She reluctantly follows close behind me, clinging to my sleeve. I blush and introduce her to Haru. "H-hi, Nanase-san." She waves and then shyly hides behind me. Haru says a simple "hello" then leaves to get dressed. (y/n) goes and waits outside.
Haru walks up to me as soon as she leaves, fully dressed and says, "You love her, don't you?" I blush a tomato red and say "NO!! I mean maybe... I don't know." He smirks and shoves me out the door. (y/n) giggles at my unorganized state and bright red face. I smile at her and she blushes back. We all walk to school together. (y/n) makes a valuable addition to our little group. Nagisa practically is velcroed to her and Rei is always apologizing for his actions. Gou is trying to get her to be more girly but she simply shakes her head no and hides behind me. "Hey (y/n)! Why don't you join the swim team? We are all on it and can always use a new member." She says, "Eh?! I don't want to drag you all behind-" Nagisa interrupts her "NO WAY!! (Y/n) you'll be great!" She scratches the back of her neck nervously and says "I guess..."
Nagisa tackles her in another hug. I smile at her and she blushes and smiles in return. "What are we waiting for?! Let's hit the pool!"
